With the World Cup around the corner, there are a lot of debates on who should be in the Indian team and who shouldn’t be. With waning powers of MS Dhoni, he is often targeted by a group of fans, who consider Dhoni as a liability on the team. But, there is a vast section, which feels that Dhoni is still invaluable to the team with his experience and strategic powers. The veteran cricketer has done well this year with the bat as well.
Rahul Dravid expressed his opinion recently when he was asked to pick on between Dhoni and Pant for the WC team.
“As a coach of the India U-19 team, I should not be commenting on who should be included. Everyone is same for me. All I will say is that Dhoni has incredible experience and he has been playing very well in the past few months. Rishabh is definitely an exciting young player and he has got the talent,” Dravid told TOI.
“If the selectors feel, two wicketkeepers can play. The best 15 should be in the team,” the legendary Indian cricketer further added.
There are also a lot of question marks over the no.4 spot. India tried Rayudu, Rahul, and Pant at the crucial spot, which shows they are yet to finalize anyone for the World Cup.
Dravid refused to state his preference for the no.4 spot player.
“Like I said, I cannot be commenting on that. I am coaching 10 boys and all of them are fighting for a place in that squad. I cannot publicly pick one particular player,” said Dravid.
I think still Wriddhiman Saha is one of the best wicket keeper in the world who can bat also. Bharat is a useless keeper but still he is in the team, what a pity.
